Thanks for letter!

Hurra for our Noble Haeckel! Hale-looking, & writing quite a steady & very clear hand after 80 years of life.

My heart is so glad to look upon your foto showing veneration which I hope shall last to keep you smiling even after the 100 year mark!

I say to medical science || “What are you with all your modern intelligence, if you cannot keep aglow such a fire as I see in the face of Ernest Haeckel as I look upon a recent fotograph.” ( 20 years more!)

It must be done, O Haeckel. You must see & know, & rejoice over the rich harvest of thy pen in emancipating the minds of men from dogmatism. Live & See!

E.W.D. ||

I enclose a few of our wild flowers gathered while on a jaunt in the mountains of California. ||

To Germany: –

Peace to Hohenzollern’s sons!

Let robins nest in Europe’s guns!

Then we’ll have along the Rhine

More of music – less of wine.

E.W.D. ||
